""A Vision of Isis" - Barnabas finds romance with Isis, the Egyptian "goddess of nature and magic," who deduces that Barnabas is the seventh reincarnation of her beloved Osiris. Isis, in search of Barnabas, comes to Collinsport under the guise of…"
"First of all, welcome back! Now, on with the show...
Jeff of Earth-J and I have discussed earlier our willingness to experiment with this restart of the title...
Admittedly, I have flip-flopped... several times. It's all going to come down to…"
"Interesting. There is another phenomenon, I'm not sure what it's called, where the listener hears a joke and assumes it was originally told by JD Deluzio, but it wasn't. For example...
"My psychology professor asked the class if anyone had ever…"
"After catching up to the end of Exodus, I had no further plans to continue this discussion at this time. But today I found a six-volume set of Matthew Henry's A Commentary on the Whole Bible (Reference Library Edition) at a decent price. I also had…"
"I was in Half Price Books today and asked the clerk to search their system for a particular book I have been looking for. She couldn't find it, but suggested I check back in a couple of days because of a certain "HPB phenomenon" in which, after a…"
"As recorded, I assume that "his sister Pam" must be Polythene Pam.
Oh, I agree completely. ("Shirley" was the "rough draft" that never made it to "print.")
Someone posting as "Tato" has a clever interpretation of the Abbey Road Medley here
A clever…"
"I actually have Super Heroes #1. Speaking of Polythene Pam, I always fancied that she was Mr. Mustard's sister. But the outtake refers to "his sister Shirley" so now I don'tknow what to think. And who is the Walrus? "
"LIGHT AND FLAME: "Multiple Irugos, which were thought to have been defeated, resurface once again. As the GGF continues to investigate, a kaiju larger than Earth Garon emerges. Emi comes into contact with her father's former teammate, Nishizaki, who…"
The WWI flying ace fades into the background as Peppermint Patty and Woodstock move to the fore. Marcie enters in 1974, and Rerun makes a single Sunday appearance in this volume. I am now exactly halfway through…"
"I'm still not through with this book -- the stories are so short, but you really can't read more than two at a time! -- but I've gotten to the longer stories in the Showcase issues. And I have to say... I prefer the short kiddie stuff. For one…"
"Next up in my proposed "alternate continuity" is the Dark Shadows comic strip. Although the Gold Key comic book series long outlasted the comic strip version, the somewhat more sophisticated newspaper version started later so I'm slotting it in…"
Jeff, I want to thank you and Tracy for the well-wishes you have given me, just to let you know how touching and thoughtful I think it was. I'm happy to tell you that I'm doing much better and I feel about 99% back to normal. Of course, it's easy to recuperate when all I have to think about is getting better while Adam takes every other burden upon himself. Here on Earth-B he has the reputation of being rather a cranky old cuss, but I know he's as sweet as a puppy! Tell him I said that and I'll blame it on the stroke.
Thank you again, Jeff, for thinking of me and do, please, pass my thanks and best wishes on to Tracy.
Happy new year!
Cheryl
